Narratives of Marginalized Identities in Higher Education

<p>This book features theorized narratives from academics who inhabit marginalized identity positions including among others academics with non-normative genders sexualities and relationships; nontenured faculty; racial and ethnic minorities; scholars with HIV depression and anxiety and other disabilities; immigrants and international students; and poor and working-class faculty and students. The chapters in this volume explore the ways in which marginalized identities fundamentally shape and impact the academic experience; thus the contributors in this collection demonstrate how academic outsiderism works both within the confines of their college or university systems and a broader matrix of community state and international relations. With an emphasis on the inherent intersectionality of identity positions this book addresses the broad matrix of ways academics navigate their particular locations as marginalized subjects. </p><p></p>
